For the Kids - John Rich & Marlee Matlin Performance (with Lyrics)

LYRICS:

There's a little girl
and she's in for the fight of her life.
Only six years old
facing down a future, no fear in her eyes.

Mama and Daddy praying down on their knees,
for a miracle in Memphis,
Lord won't you help them please.

For the kids
we trade all our tomorrows,
and for the kids
we give our heart and soul,
'cause they're the heroes of our lives
fighting to survive,
so give all you can give
for the kids.

There's a little boy
and he's sitting in his daddy's lap.
He smiles and laughs
and covers his head in a St. Jude ball cap.

It's been a long battle,
but he's going to beat the odds.
He's going to make it out of there,
'cause people care
and by the grace of God.

For the kids
we trade all our tomorrows,
and for the kids
we give our heart and soul,
'cause they're the heroes of our lives
fighting to survive,
so give all you can give
for the kids.

And I sing for the ones
whether far or near.
You've got to live,
so we can give it all the world may hear
music in their ears.

For the kids
we trade all or tomorrows,
and for the kids
we give our heart and soul,
'cause they're the heroes of our lives
fighting to survive,
so give all you can give
you got to give all you can give
for the kids.

Give for the kids.

I wouldn't have been mad to see either of them Win John Rich is a fine example of what being a Humanitarian is and marlee is a wonderful woman that was very passionate about her charity. God Bless them both and damn to hell whoever puts this song, John, Marlee, or The Kids down ..

@crpsaiyan i wish i could thumbs up this a thousand times

[crpsaiyan]

What I loved is how everyone (including Donald Trump) did the sign for applause at the end of the performance; that was so wonderful. :)

[Abstractium]

These are the times when I regain my faith in mankind.

It's when I know that mankind isn't all about killing, stealling, vandalism or selfishness...But about love.

For the kids...And all of us.
